Answer: No, provided you were attempting in good faith to reconcile during any such periods of cohabitation and were under the guidance of certain professional marriage counselors or clergy during these periods. You can also insure that any such cohabitation time will be included in your total month count by signing a written agreement with your spouse stating your intent to attempt to reconcile during the period in question.
